App of the Day: Flight of the Fireflies

Welcome to CNET Australia's App of the Day, where you can see some of the coolest, silliest and most useful apps in action.

Flight of the Fireflies is just dead pretty. It's very reminiscent of Flower on the PSN, where you, as the wind, have to collect flower petals. Here in the twilight, it's fireflies, making their meandering way to a new home. That's pretty much it: you use your finger to create a trail for the little bugs, and you have to explore every nook and cranny to find your lost buddies. In between the gorgeous visuals and the ethereal soundtrack, it's an exercise in ambience. Our only beef with it is that it's so depressingly short: just five levels and boom, done. We're keeping our fingers crossed for an update.
